Rio Vista Church - Fort Lauderdale (FL)

5 /5 Michael Buonaiuto: Ive been attending Rio Vista for just over a year now. I really like the small group that we meet up with on Tuesday nights. I appreciate the dedication to having a coffee hour in between services. I feel welcomed and comfortable to share my struggles with church leaders...even to the point I am going to attend couples counseling with the associate pastor, his wife, and my girlfriend. The worship is good. Very predictable. Never too rocky, never too sappy. The sermon (no matter who is preaching) is always introspective. Pastor Tom was a lawyer and my future father-in-law said he thought Toms message was laid out like a case. I guess thats true sometimes but for me, its more of an easy to listen to guy sharing whats on his heart and pointing the answer to the cross. There are consistently events happening at the church like game nights, young adult nights, mens breakfasts, rallies, worship nights...and theyre just about to open a new building next door that Im really excited for. Rio Vista is in a beautiful part of town and I feel truly blessed to be part of a church I can lean on like a family.

5 /5 Christian N: We just started coming here a few months ago, and as a lifetime church goer I have to say, this pastor is probably the best preacher and teacher of the Word I have ever seen. His sermons are really incredibly good and he is so clear and smart and makes each sermon into a valuable teaching moment. I takeaway so much from his sermons, more than I ever have before, I’m also learning more than I ever have before. He is a thoughtful teacher and you can really see God speaking through him every week. Truly anointed. We also never feel awkward or unwelcome coming in as new comers each week, which is also so refreshing. The beautiful worship time is so nice and so filled with the Holy Spirit. Their outreach in the community is also something that is so amazing and unmatched in my experience in the area. A great church and welcoming environment.

5 /5 Nita B: Myself and my daughter came to this church for a few months while in Fort Lauderdale and we miss it. We just moved back to our home state and this is really the thing we miss the most about our time in Fort Lauderdale. Really top notch pastor and worship team, the worship team will blow you away and we just loved coming here. Amazing church really.

5 /5 Mr Tim: I travel for work and have only been to this church a couple of times but the service is excellent and the sermons are phenomenal. Of the times Ive gone the sermons have spoken to me and my life but also seem to speak to the community as well.

5 /5 Eliot Rocks: Been going here for years. They have many ministries and opportunities to serve in your community. They have a wonderful Haiti ministry and great kids programs. Their Sunday morning services appeal to a wide variety of people and is worth a try if you have never been. The people are very friendly.
